My saga to find a dr. to accept my Obamacare Blue Cross Insurance

[Eliot Rosewater]

81. Yes, we dont disagree, but we do have to recognize that our system has allowed for SOME

physicians (not most by any means), pharmaceutical companies and of course hospitals to make enormous profits off of you and me.

It isnt like that anywhere else, not anywhere, not anywhere of any note or size.

A heart surgeon making $5 million a year makes sense in light of a MLB catcher making $10 million I guess, but we dont need baseball to survive.

So as a society we have to make compromises, all of us including the best doctors and so on.

ACA is the single greatest accomplishment by a president since Medicare via Johnson and Social Security before that via FDR.

Obama is one of the 3 best presidents of all time, and Hillary would have been also or top 5.

And that is all true at the same time we have a broken healthcare system that only works really well for some of us.

Like I said, you make medical school, nursing school all tuition free and everyone who partakes agrees to work in the national healthcare system. Get rid of for profit hospitals except for rich people who want private rooms and spas.

Doctors and teachers will still make plenty of money but maybe the heart surgeon makes $2 million a year instead of 5, something like that.

The alternative is an ACA with a republican president doing everything he can to destroy it because of the skin color of Obama etc.
